Hi Matt... I wouldn't even think of running a db on the same box, despite its capacity. "some of them" getting 1 million hits per year could equate to 20k hits per day; which isn't the end o the world but its substantial.
--I should have stated that the high hit sites will have little in the form of DB apps, MySQL will be there to support Blogs and Wikis which may link to these larger sites however. Then you throw in that there are going to be video downloads? And SATA drives and not SCSI? --thanks, normally I'm SCSI all the way, but we're on a tight budget, will look it over again, thanks. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Deploy Web Applications Quickly across the enterprise with ColdFusion MX7 & Flex 2 Free Trial http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=RVJU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:281446 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
